I've got some type of love/hate-feel when it comes to Mike Posner, but I can't really put my finger on what it is about him that rubs me the wrong way. One one hand I loved his verse on Benny Blanco's remix of 3OH!3's 'Don't Trust Me' but on the other I got so creeped out by the cover of his the second mixtape "One Foot Out The Door" that was released the last days of October I couldn't write a...

It seems like Juelz Santana's upcoming album "Born to Lose, Built to Win" will turn out pretty nice after the numerous of pushbacks since 2007. It's now set for a release sometime next year and even if I hated it at first, 'Back to the Crib' grew good on me, despite the bad taste with the Chris Brown feature. Here's the official video directed by Taj Lewis:And since I haven't featured the previ...

Even thou the video for Uffie's 'Pop The Glock', directed by Nathalie Canguilhem was stunning and featured Sky Fierra I never felt the urge to post it when it dropped early October. Why? It felt way too old. But now Uffie's back with fresh material. Her debut album "Sex Dreams and Denim Jeans" is slated for a release on Valentines Day, the 14th of February next year and here's the brand new sin...

Year round ups will soon crowd the streets of Internet in a week or so and for the 511th time in a row, 2009 was the new 2006! Like the comeback of b-more e.g., The Get 'Em Mamis (with their super great mixtape "TerAwesome") and DJ Class definitely brought back the b-more heat this year and thank god for that. But I'm not that sure of 'Party Crackin', the latest single from DJ Class thou, sure, it

Yey! Amazon just provided 30-seconds snippets to one of the most anticipated albums of 2009, Young Money's collaborative "We Are Young Money". I'm not gonna lie, the tracks I look forward to the most on this album are the ones that features Nicki Minaj, no question about it. And from what I can hear by them snippets, the album gonna live up to my huge expectations! There's been minor changes in th

Sure, got ALOT of rock submissions today for some reason, seriously, get some real? The day I start to write about music I don't listen to is the day I stop to write, period.

It has been kinda quite around Wale up in here ever since "Attention: Deficit" got released but those days are officially over. Now Wale jumps on one of the best tracks of Timbo's recently released album "Shock Value II". And he does it rather good, but it doesn't make me cry per automatic as the original track does, dunno why I do that really. Maybe it's time to give Oprah a holler before she'...

There's several reasons I love this brand new release from Oh Snap!!. 1. It's Oh Snap!"! - never fails 2. The cover features a snappy Kool-Aid Man and since Kool-Aid doesn't exist here in Sweden I've developed a huge crave 3. Everything that salutes women of a decent size should be praised in a world gone crazy for negative size zer0.The "Plus Size Model" EP will be out on Beatport on Dirty Fab...

If I'm having a rough day there's one track that always gets me right back into the saddle, well, there's several, but Yo Gotti's perfect sample of the old 'Tom's Diner' by Suzanne Vega in 'Standing In The kitchen' is exceptional. And this new track featuring Lil Wayne from his upcoming album "Live from the Kitchen", (Yo Gotti's fifth stuido album but his major label debut and his first album r...

I know, I've been complaining an AWFUL lot about the state of grime this year, but it has not all been a complete Chipmunk-fest and a rerun of tired old Danny Weed-beats. No, P-Money's mixtape "Money Over Everyone" was a real breath of FRESH air and one of the best tracks off it was '1UP'. Why? Thanks to one of grime's most promising young producers, Mark Taylor from Southampton aka. Royal-T and h

I've said it many times before but this year, 2009 has really been the new 2006. Not just concerning the down fall of grime, no the biggest reason is the return of Malic & Pusha T aka. The Clipse and their third studio album "Til the Casket Drops".To be blunt, "Til the Casket Drops" lacks a single of the 'Wamp Wamp (What It Do)'-calibre from the previous "Hell Hath No Fury" but it really doesn'...

I'm still under the Nicki Minaj spell and this snappy snap by Derick G from the shooting of the 'Bedrock' video is quite... amazing. Guess the love wont die out any time soon...'Bedrock' is the second single from Young Money's collaboration album "We Are Young Money" that drops the 21st of December along with Lil Wayne's slippery slope rock-ish album "Rebirth". The video is directed by Dayo and...

Almost always I find myself loving them tracks that proudly can put the name Timothy Zachery Mosley among the production credits and the first volume of "Shock Value" was good. Damn good even. Just the whole mix of people, sometimes out of their ordinary element and comfort zone, on great Timbaland productions. A cash cow deluxe. So why not try to milk the most out of it? It worked for N.A.S.A ear

Yey, finally the remix video ft. KiD CuDi of Shakira's 'Did It Again' is on OnSmash, just the perfect excuse I needed to post some new Cudder-ish!Cause, let's get some real for a while, this video, directed by Sophie Muller, isn't good, that dance scene on the bed... Oh Mia Michaels where art thou? Bad contemporary dance (performed by a b-boy) desperately seeking her muse! Press mute and crank ...
